Interesting reading all of this again. I'm surprised that the Baldwin feral cat problem is not on the top 10. It's probably number 11 Lol. I wonder which story has the most comments for 2012?

Wow, good call, Frank.
Surprisingly, that cats story—"Man Wants Stray Cats Controlled—Or Shot" (http://patch.com/A-tQC5)— is only No. 14, behind, in order: "MUST-SEE: South Baldwin Presents 'Firefighter Gangnam Style'" (http://patch.com/A-y6sn); "REMINDER: All B-W Trick-or-Treating Times Pushed to Saturday" (http://patch.com/A-zd3b); and "Leland Point Becomes The Residences of South Hills" (http://patch.com/A-tYdh). As for highest number of comments, that goes to "Whitehall Man Aiming to Remove Obama from PA Ballot" (http://patch.com/A-qH6l).

Well, you never know when a new verbal onslaught might come your way. I mean, after all, you wereRead More blind-sided last week by a verbal attack, who's to say another doesn't happen this week.

They can only do it during their comment time.

Things are much clearer now. Interesting audio clip posted on Patch today along with new article.

Margaret, I'm sorry for your loss. Your son is your guardian angle watching over you and yourRead More family.
Margaret French June 7, 2013 at 09:14 am
Thank you. Yesterday was a hard day for me.
cc June 8, 2013 at 09:15 am
Margaret I'm sure it was a very hard day. I don't look forward to June 17 as I lost my best friend,Read More my dad that day.
Ned Hardt June 9, 2013 at 12:54 am
We understand, Bob, it's the new system, not US nor our abilities. Just a shame it takes so long butRead More there HAS been progress. Looks like they need to next work on making the "flag as inappropriate" button work, {sigh} Hey, Margaret, Patch knocked computer off IE AGAIN in the middle of posting this, it's not just you---probably quite a few of us. I know of another website that had similar problems, but finally got it fixed. Hang in there! :-)
Ned Hardt June 9, 2013 at 12:56 am
Only took three tries to get that one to post, haha!
Margaret French June 12, 2013 at 09:23 am
LOL Ned. I am still getting knocked off. I use msn.
Robert Edward Healy, III (Editor) June 5, 2013 at 10:59 am
Baldwin Dad, hang in there with us. We're aware of the issues, and our IT team is working to fixRead More them ASAP.
Margaret French June 6, 2013 at 12:28 am
That is the same message I got for days. It was so frustrating.

Was Kiki the Calico kitty found? I sure hope so.
fran276 June 3, 2013 at 09:03 am
I really wish we'd get an update on Kiki. Every time I look outside and scan the neighborhood, IRead More pray I see her cause I know how this family feels.
fran276 June 4, 2013 at 10:09 am
Please update on Kiki.

it is very easy to use the new patch.

The only thing I am now having an issue with is replying to a comment made by someone. In the oldRead More environment, if I replied to someone's comment it indented so it was clear which response I was replying. In this new environment, all the comments run together and it's difficult to know which comment I am responding (unless I specify the user name)
